Environment
Dashboards, safety belt buckles - it is not just engines that
produce emissions. That's why Volvo cars don't contain certain
materials that trigger allegies or give off toxins. We have
allergy filters, pollution filters, controlling the amount of
pollens, toxins and gases that enter the cab.
Volvo cars also eliminate 95% to 99% of its carbon monoxide,
nitrogen oxides and hydrocarbon emissions. In 1991 our
Torslanda paintshop was declared the world's cleanest. In 1974
Volvo created the landmark oxidizing catalytic converter, the
forerunner of today's units.
